UPenn ED Countdown

<p>wtf!! i found out today that i work on the 10th til 8 pm.</p>

<p>oh no!</p>

<p>choco i had a dream the other day about the other guy who's applying to penn ED from my school...i was like 'you were in my dream the other night. we both got in and were living in the same room for some reason.' he got sufficiently freaked out from that alone...good thing i left out the part where we started hooking up hahahaha</p>

<p>whoa! cool.</p>

<p>yay, I just finished my paper for my college psychology class. we had to do 10 pages on a topic of our choice... I did a 14 pager on LSD.</p>

<p>he gave the assignment to us on the first day of class - august 31st.... and i thought it was gonna be due in like two weeks and then he was like "yeah... hand it on thursday december 2". lol.</p>

<p>haha that's so kickass! i had...virtually no homework. math that i always do in the five minutes of class before she checks it...i feel kind of guilty about that sometimes. she's a wonderful woman and wrote me a killer recommendation, and i don't even take the class seriously lol. but still me and Mrs. Heller...we're like buds. seriously i talk to her like anyone in my grade, which is kinda odd but still cool</p>

<p>yeah... i had a french teacher whos class i did well in but did pay attention or do work.</p>

<p>she was gonna write my rec but she left at the end of last year. and i gave her a resume and all. but anyway my calc teacher did it and probably did a good rec.</p>

<p>so all is well.</p>

<p>heh today i was telling my GC how much i love learning in my Gov class b/c of the teacher...and mentioned how sorry i was that i only got Schuey (Schumaecker) this year, b/c i would have asked her for a rec seeing as how i'm going for gov/pol sci/int. rel. and she really likes me and gives me good grades and went to G-town and has been teaching a long time. and my GC was like "Well why DON'T you ask?" and i was like "I've only had Schuey for one marking period...wouldn't that make me look like i was desperate for recs?" and she said "Well no...lots of kids asked Whittemore for a recommendation and they've only had him for a marking period." i kept my silence...that DOES sound like they couldn't find any teacher that liked them enough from junior year.</p>

<p>and my friend Paul, a really decent guy and student, asked my math teacher for one and she actually said no. and she's like the nicest lady ever, it was so odd. i felt so lucky to have three teachers volunteering to write me recs...with my math teacher, i wasn't even going to ASK her b/c i was such a pain in her class (period before a late lunch, you know lol)...and then i handed in some project and she was like "Renee this is wonderful...when you ask me for a rec, be sure to include this." I was like "What? Mrs. Heller, i'm SO ANNOYING in this class! I never shut up b/c i try to distract myself from how hungry I am, you know that!" and she was like "come on...what do you think I was like when I was your age?" so i was like uh okay...and she said she wrote me a killer one. <3 Mrs. Heller. i feel so bad, her husband died this year...she totally didn't deserve it.</p>

<p>the reason i'm rambling is because i just had espresso, which clearly wasn't a good idea. SOMEBODY STOP ME!</p>

<p>lol <em>pins renny down</em></p>

<p>i asked a teacher that had me freshmen year for english, and sophomore and junior year for latin.</p>

<p>the other one i had for precalc in junior year, and i have this year for ap calc...</p>

<p>yeah perfect. mine was that math teacher that apparently loves me (news to me...) and my fave teacher, an English teacher that had me all last year and made me editor of the literary magazine that i was on staff for, and submitted lotsacrap to. plus we're trying to push the whole RENNY IS A WRITER! A WRITER! image for the app so it works out nicely.</p>

<p>i wonder what my image is...</p>

<p>probably like a weird kid that somehow most students like but teachers don't like much.</p>

<p>thats true - most if not all my teachers dislike me and all my peers like me (or so it SEEMS)</p>

<p>yeaaaaaaaaaaah man!
my teachers don't seem to like me too much except for my orchestra conductor</p>

<p>but omg. the best was when this choir teacher who has HATED me since 6th grade for no reason at all...holy crap i still crack up thinking about it. everyone has always been like 'Jeez why does she hate you so much Renee, you're one of the best sopranos' and yet she has always been mean to me over the most ridiculous things. Let's put it this way: i made regional choir, meaning i was one of the best singers out of the people who auditioned from SEVEN COUNTIES...and yet, she didn't let me into the SCHOOL madrigal choir. everyone was like okay, that's messed up.</p>

<p>and then one day i was talking in class and she said, "You know, Renee, you may want to make a good impression on someone you'll be asking for a recommendation later."</p>

<p>it was all i could do...to not start cracking up hysterically. She REALLY thought that i'd have no other teacher that would want to recommend me and come crawling to her? she HATES me! we imagined me approaching her for a rec...</p>

<p>My mom: "Mrs. [Teacher]? Would you mind writing me a recommenda-oh wait, I should probably ask someone who LIKES me! Never mind!"
Me: "Mrs. [Teacher], I was wondering if you could write me a recommendatio-oh wait, I actually wanted to get IN to this college."</p>

<p>ahhh so close!!!</p>

<p>It Has To Be Meaningful</p>

<p>1000 posts!!!!!!</p>

<p>ahhh!!!!!!!</p>

<p><em>runs around in circles</em></p>

<p>AHHHHH!!!!!!!</p>

<p>8 DAYS TIL PENN DECISIONS!!!!</p>

<p>AHHH!!!!!!</p>

<p>hahaha i hope it was as good as you imagined it</p>

<p>YAY CHOCO!</p>

<p>i still can't make the Penn Countdown link work. it says "Occasion Already Passed!" STILL.</p>

<p>8 days, 14 hours, 6 minutes, and 31 seconds left until Penn decisions come out</p>

<p>it might be b/c your date on your computer is setup incorrectly?
mine reports the time until it hits 3:00 Pac., so yea.</p>

<p>edit:
it says:
8 days, 17 hours, 6 minutes, and 31 seconds
when i look at it</p>

<p>wow...8 days, 17 hours, 6 minutes, and 31 seconds for me to learn how to deal with rejection.</p>

<p>i got a haircut today. my hair is usually pretty long, but i had her chop it to chin-length and then go over it with a razor. it's all choppy and short now. i like to think it reflects my attitude at the moment - rough around the edges, and couldn't care less anymore....;-P</p>

<p>(edit: you were totally right about the time thing. my clock said December 2, 2005 lol)</p>
